ICE Publishing signs up to UKSG transfer code of practice
ICE Publishing is pleased to announce their endorsement of the UKSG transfer codes of practice (http://www.uksg.org/transfer).
The UKSG Transfer Code of Practice is a set of voluntary best practices for scholarly publishers to ensure that when journals transfer between parties the process occurs with minimum disruption and that the content remains accessible.
In signing up to this code of practice, ICE Publishing joins other industry leaders embracing the UKSG standards as a baseline of quality and performance. The Code aims to ensure that signatories facilitate a swift transfer of subscriber information and journal content and provide continued access to the journal content for customers.
Commenting on their endorsement Ben Ramster, Journals Manager, said: “ICE Publishing has a long history of working closely with the librarian community and we are delighted to endorse this code of best journal practice.”
Alison Mitchell, co-Chair of the Transfer Working Group said: “The UKSG Transfer Working Group warmly welcomes ICE Publishing to the growing list of publishers that endorse the Code.”
The Code was developed under the auspices of UKSG by a Working Group composed of librarians, publishers and subscription agents. For more information on the Code please visit the UKSG website.
